I am pretty sure i am blind. The black wheels are they 100% black? Or is it two tone? 1 part black 1 part silver.

2 tone

Black with part silver blades and they are awesome!

Two-tone, but the lighter color is more of a gunmetal chrome finish than a silver one.

i know there are tons of threads on this but has anyone recently had problems with the black part of the wheel peeling? do most who have the black wheels still like them after having them for awhile?

Well I've only had the car a few weeks but I have to say they are some of the best looking stock wheels I have seen on any car. As for the peeling I can't imagine how unless the wheel is damaged but again its very early days for me.

mine started to peel. did not damage it. I could just pick at the spot that peeled and the gunmetal/black glitter paint on the wheel comes off right away...

I have the same wheels it's called "Brush-tinted" the latest thing for Wheels.

Should be covered by BMW as part of your warranty. The paint on the front bumper on my wife's '11 335is Coupe started bubbling and flaking off at about 3.5 years, but they had it resprayed at a BMW Certified collision shop. I'd definitely check into this.
